Níxīmǐjì 9:23 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 9:23

Their children also multipliedst thou as the stars of heaven,
&c.] Fulfilling the promise made to Abraham, ( Genesis 15:5 ) ( 22:17 ) ( Deuteronomy 1:10 ) their number when they came out of Egypt, and just before they entered into the land of Canaan, being upwards of 600,000 men, besides women and children, ( Exodus 12:37 ) ( Numbers 11:21 ) ( 26:51 )

and broughtest them into the land, concerning which thou hadst
promised to their fathers, that they should go in to possess it;
the land of Canaan, promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and their seed, into which the Lord brought them by Joshua; he was the instrument, but the thing was of God.
